About Connecting the Dots for Caregivers
Connecting the Dots for Caregivers is an initiative that focuses on improving the experience for caregivers. Together, six local health care providers and caregivers are co-designing solutions that address the needs of caregivers and ensure they feel more supported, valued and engaged in their role. The project began by talking to caregivers and healthcare providers to better understand the improvement opportunities. From that work, three themes were identified that will help improve the experience of caregivers: Awareness and Recognition, Communication and Information, as well as Education, Training and Supports. The project is being funded by The Change Foundation
